Excellent.
The story is tough and gritty, the protagonist is molded on the typical tough guy but you soon learn he is completely unique. The writing style and story will keep you intrigued. It is a timeless story that takes place in Brooklyn and Manhattan, an intense love story playing out in the midst of Little Odessa. Original and smart.

Superb!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Although it took me a short while to adapt to the author's style, the story and the characters held my attention throughout. It's a story of loyalty, ambition, love and betrayal, seen through the eyes of a young man trying to make his way through the New York City underworld. It's one of those books that you want to power through so you can see how things turn out, but at the same time, you don't want it to end. Pick it up - you won't be disappointed. I only hope Anthony Lee's subsequent efforts can live up to my now-heightened expectations.

Practically worthless
Oh, so chatty and friendly, everything this guide mentions, profiles, or reviews is simply F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. To read this book is to think that every gay spot in New York is just shy of heaven. Even the biggest dive receives rave reviews. While giving high marks to everything and supposedly being "the authoritative guide to gay & lesbian NYC," it fails to know about new hot spots (particularly in the burgeoning Hell's Kitchen neighborhood). Good for addresses of places only.

Both practical *and* fun
Aldous Huxley wrote, "For every great traveler who has any taste of his own, the only useful guidebook will be the one which he himself has written." That said, the editor has created a tremendously useful and compact volume that is much like what I would have written, were I able to visit all these places.

Readers will find this guide good entertainment while traveling to New York (it's very readable, unlike others), as well as good for carrying as a reference while exploring the city (it fits easily into a pocket, backpack, or purse).

This book was written with the audience in mind. It includes directions, websites, phone number, hours of operation, and includes points of interest that may be near a particular entry. While the overall organization of the book is by type of entertainment or activity, the index is arranged alphabetically as well as by neighborhood (a very helpful feature).

Queer New York City is full of practical advice - the kind you would provide a visiting friend. It has a sprinkling of humor without being obnoxious, is clearly written to give the reader a good idea of what to expect from a particular establishment, and is never too wordy.

If you're visiting New York City for the first time and are looking for places to go, if you're a regular visitor and want to expand your horizons and find places you didn't know existed, or if you're a native and want to give visitors a practical, well-organized guide to the queer side of NYC (the one you would write, if you had time), this book is for you.

I hope they'll do this for more cities!
